===== Date and country of first publication<ref>Date and country of first publication as informed by the Scopus database (December 2023).</ref>===== 1990<br> United States ===== Definition ===== Immigrant segregation refers to the separation or isolation of immigrants from the native population or other groups within society. It can manifest in various ways including residential, educational, and occupational segregation. Residential segregation occurs when immigrants live in distinct neighborhoods or communities that are separate from the native population. This separation can arise due to various factors, including economic disparities, language barriers, and cultural differences. It can lead to limited opportunities for social integration and interaction with the wider society, potentially perpetuating discriminatory practices and biases. Educational segregation refers to the separation of immigrant students within schools or educational institutions. This can occur when immigrant students are placed in separate classes or schools with limited access to resources and opportunities. Language barriers, cultural differences, and discrimination can contribute to this form of segregation, often resulting in educational disadvantages for immigrant students. Occupational segregation occurs when immigrants are limited to certain types of jobs or industries, often in sectors that offer low wages and poor working conditions. Immigrants may face barriers in accessing higher-skilled employment due to language barriers, lack of recognition of foreign qualifications, and discrimination. This can lead to limited economic and social mobility for immigrants and perpetuate inequalities within the labor market. Immigrant segregation can have negative implications for both immigrants and the wider society. It can hinder social cohesion, decrease opportunities for cultural exchange and integration, and perpetuate inequality and discrimination. Policies that promote equal opportunities, inclusiveness, and integration are crucial in addressing and reducing immigrant segregation. ===== Synonyms ===== The following terms are synonymous with immigrant segregation: immigrants spatial segregation.
